Invisalign, it's clear so people won't even know you have it.

You could cover your teeth with veneers but it's not fixing them. My aunt never had her teeth done as a child because her family was dirt poor. As an adult she had migraine headaches quite often. In her late 30's a doctor finally suggested she get braces. She did.. and it stopped the migraines. Isn't that cool? You may just want to do it. When things are not as they should they can make a mess of other things.
I had braces on when I was ten .. way back in 1980. They were metal and big. You couldn't help but notice. Plus I had to wear headgear that went over my entire head like a helmet at night starting at 7 pm to 7 am. The advances they have made are great. I think you should do it. My teeth were a royal mess and now I have a beautiful smile!.. Thanks Mom and Dad!

Some kids just get a retainer, but I'm assuming that you posted this question because your orthodontist has said something. In this case, there is no other way to fix your teeth.
Don't worry though: you might feel bad about it in the beginning, but it's one of the greatest feelings in the world when you finally get them off and you have straight, shiny, white teeth and a beautiful smile.

No braces are the only way and correcting an overbite now etc can prevent future problems later in years. Wouldn't it be easier to get this corrected now than to have to have tons more dental work done later on in life?

braces are worth it in the long run and no one regrets it after wards. You could always go for the clear invisible braces, but they cost a lot more. It really depends on how much money you are willing to spend.

There is. An operation will do. But i am sure u will prefere wearing braces, cuz it hurts doing a operation.

Talk with an orthodontist. Most offer free consultations. You might be able to get invisalign.
